What to know about Bitcoin Cash and USD Coin
Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) appeared in August 2017 as a hard fork of Bitcoin by developers who wanted larger blocks for cheaper on-chain payments.
Sending and receiving BCH
BCH usually uses the CashAddr format that starts with bitcoincash:q or just q. Legacy addresses starting with 1 look like Bitcoin addresses, so double-check that you are not sending BCH to a BTC wallet.
USD Coin (USDC)
USD Coin (USDC) is a dollar stablecoin issued by Circle since 2018. Each token is backed by reserves held in cash and short-term US Treasuries, and the reserve composition is regularly reported by the issuer.
Risks and things to know
USDC depends on the issuer and its banking partners, and the issuer can block tokens on specific addresses. In March 2023 USDC briefly traded below one dollar when part of the reserves was held at a failed US bank.
Optimism network
Optimism is an Ethereum layer-2 network. Addresses use the Ethereum format and fees are paid in ETH at a fraction of mainnet cost.

What to check before exchanging BCH to USDC Optimism
